4 rushes for 18 yards (4.5 YPC) and 3 receptions (on 3 targets) for 49 yards and a TD.
I know, it was the Lions, but dude really stepped up and shined. Though he picked up a blitzer once from what I saw as well.
That first catch for a TD was the first and only score on the first drive of the season all year.
Nice job, Chris.

He looked like a proper replacement for Gio.

He showed he belonged and should get some looks over Perine (who I am not as down on as a number 2 as many on the board).

On the blitz pickup he got tossed around like a rag doll, but hung in there to block his man.. That's the kind of block that usually goes unblocked..

Yes, Burrow even mentioned how well he did and that by playing like he did he will get more snaps.
